Expert tree trimming around our home in Fearrington Village

Trees grow tall around here. Reaching for the light, they often grow to hang over drives and the houses themselves. We just had Tyndall Tree Services trim tree branches that presented potential safety hazards. Here are some photos of these professionals in action.

The Tyndal crew arrived with state of art equipment and set up in the drive

They can clime up trees to cut protruding branches

They employ an amazing extension arm and bucket to reach branches way up

About us

"I was that kid you could always find turning over rocks in streams, looking for what wonders nature would disclose to me," says Greenslade. His curiosity about the natural world led him to a life as scientist and organizational executive. Now in retirement, Dr. Greenslade is again doing what he did when he was ten years old -- turning over rocks and sculpting and painting the wonders that nature discloses.
"I lived a serious life, but now in my dotage, I am just letting the kid out again," Greenslade smiles.
"It's more fun than an old guy deserves."
My wife Carol-Ann and I live in Fearrington Village, where we host The Artist's Garret AirBNB over my Organic Forrestry Studio.
